Washer makes a high-pitched squealing noise during spin.

Safety first: Unplug the washer before removing the rear panel.

• Inspect belt: Look for cracks, glazing, or fraying. Replace if worn.
• Check pulley alignment: Ensure motor and drum pulleys are aligned and secure.
• Remove debris: Clear any lint or objects caught near the belt.
• Lubricate idler (if serviceable): If an idler pulley is used and is serviceable, apply a small amount of appropriate lubricant to the bearing.
